I have created my first CRON job. It appears to be working as the entry in syslogs. It looks like, to me that the routine takes about a minute to complete. This is in keeping with when I run the command manually and works great creates a file no problem.
The CRON job however fails to create the file and I can't see any clues in the log file. I running Ubuntu version 12, here is a section of the log. Where should I look next??
thanks
